Yeah, I know...we've heard this before.  But the headline caught my eye, so I read it again.  This stood out to me:

"The document is not available to the public or to women in the Mormon church. In fact, a number of Mormon women wrote us describing how happy they were to see this information listed," Assange said.

I just wonder if these Mormon woman asked their bishop to see it?  And why did they want to see it?  As long as I know what my duties are, who cares what duties the hymnbook coordinator does?

This is all a part of what I see as a general breakdown of law in the world. Wikileaks is clearly in the wrong, but to get them to stop would be a huge effort.

If we asked, what would the answer be? I've never even thought about it.

I've never heard of a Bishop saying no if ward memeber asked to see the handbook. They aren't gonna let you take it home probably, but seeing it usually isn't a problem, afaik.

I asked about something a couple years ago and the bishop broke out the book and we looked up whatever my question was.

I have read it cover to cover sitting in bishopric and presidency meetings. No shockers in there, nothing to make you say "WOW!!!"

Never really thought about it. Getting my temple divorce was about as close to "inner workings" as I ever got. shrug.gif
